My Dear/Poem by MwsR

I see your things amongst the others

You are still here in so many ways

Nothing has really been the same

Often times I lay and daydream

You are in those daydreams, happy and smiling

I often wonder where did my time with you go?

Why must we let go and let them make their own path?

I never fully thought about the little time I would have

Forever meant forever, just the way it began

I was in denial for so many reasons in so many ways

I sometimes felt like I hindered you

I guess that is normal, at least in this case

Being a parent is never easy and we will make mistakes

We will want to hold onto our children for our lifetime in one way or another

It is natural and it is okay.

It is when we stop letting them experiment, try new things

Or perhaps when we don’t allow them to take things on their selves

That we smother their chances, their desires, and their wants.

No one ever said it would be easy or without tears

I have loved and cherished all my time with you years.

Always know that better or worse, you still can come here

I will still hold you and comfort you, my child, my dear,

(TO MY kids R>M>J)

Somewhere Over In Dumb-bo ville

Everywhere you can look there is things in our country that can make you think, “wow”. I am not sure why I used the title I did for this, but it could be because i wanted to talk about a few things that are dumb.

For instance…

More technology for one. Are we not already full up to our necks with technology? For instance, the other day I visited a local store. I saw the strangest thing. I came upon an oven that has a LED panel in the oven door. Now i am just like any other person I like to be informed and have up to the date things and what not, but come on! Do we need a LED screen in our oven? I am sure you have seen the refrigerators with the screens that interact with your mobile phones, computers or laptops. That I thought was a little too much and now I see an oven with a LED screen. My first thought was, “yes, let’s make a hot, dangerous oven appealing to toddlers!” Are you getting me here? What makes a person want to have a “tv” on their oven door???

I am just all struck by that.

Another thing…

These devices that listen in to your homes and cars that have them now, how much privacy do you really think you have? I would say not much. My question would be , ” What does somebody know about you?” from these devices. Not to mention can they access cameras and safety cameras to look on in your private space? Think about it!

Personally, it is kind of creepy thinking that some device knows me like that! Better yet can turn on things, turn them off, and can view what I do inside my own home.

Okay so you like technology, you like being up on the techno ladder, but how much are you freely giving away to someone you don’t know? Also, how safe do you like your home, your belongings, what you do behind closed doors, better yet, your children’s safety? Well let me tell you, it comes at a cost you may not yet realize. I guess you will have to decide what you are willing to give up or willing to take to become high on the techno ladder.

Welcome to SOMEWHERE OVER DUMB-bo ville.

I am not trying to put off on anyone who has these gadgets or things, just trying to give you something to think about. Please accept my apologies if you live in Dumbo-bo ville.

No offense given.

Grandeur/Poem

Pristine decorations adorn the bride’s veil

Snow white lace upon the wedding dress tail

Whispering ones can be heard because despite the music

Although the ushers all seem altruistic.

Music from speakers, that sounds very familiar

The music plays on one song after another, which is kind of the allure.

People entering the place with exquisite looks on their faces

If I did not know what it was, I would declare it was the races.

So much planning for a rather short ceremony

t that’s the way of things concerning matrimony.

Music gets  intense  as all heads turn in unison

Here comes the bride, coming out from behind that partition.

Grandeur, I see on this most special occasion.

But as soon as it’s over, I will look for a catabasion

For which to hide

I don’t do well with crowds, I won’t lie.

For now I will watch as two become one,

My friend and her someone.

MwsR ❤

Trying my hand at this, don’t ask, lol
